Understanding the signals that initiate ingestion and satiety require synchronized data with high temporal resolution, especially if the pattern of Ingestive events is important.

Animal models (for example, obese and diabetic mice) exhibit symptoms similar to those in humans.

When closely monitored model organisms reveal relevant differences that may correlate with those of human disorders in vital parameters such as feeding/drinking (quantity & frequency of food/drink uptake), activity (with optional I.R. motion detectors) and excretion (the latter assessed by volume or weight).
